Chapter 455: Chapter 131: Carmen Heavy Industries
Thick black smoke rose from a corner of the city, obscuring the ink-like darkness of the night.
Magicians in the city could confirm at a glance that the black smoke came from Carmen Heavy Industries’ headquarters.
As the winner of the last championship, Carmen Heavy Industries had become the most feared existence for magicians.
Some old families even secretly called them upstarts.
Magicians, who rely on family inheritance and transcendence, usually have stronger foundations and powers the longer they exist.
So now, the famous families tend to have a long history and inheritance.
But Carmen Heavy Industries was different; it was originally just a small family with only two generations of inheritance and was the most inconspicuous existence.
But after winning the Twelfth Seven Kings War, a king appeared in the family, and they even received a gift from the heroic spirits.
Putting aside the former for now because of the king’s special identity, the latter left Carmen Heavy Industries with a gift that was enough to make all magicians jealous.
It was technology that had never appeared in this world, derived from the mysterious power of the heroic spirits.
Materials forged using this technology became treasured artifacts sought after by every magician.
As a result, Carmen Heavy Industries quickly rose to prominence. In just twenty years, they had become a force on par with the great families.
Although it’s said that they were on par... It was just the talk of the big families. Who knows if it’s true? Maybe they can fight ten big families at once?
There were even rumors that Carmen had participated in this Seven Kings War.
Many magicians, after learning the news, said with a bitter smile that if Carmen Heavy Industries wins again this time, they may become the overlord controlling the magic world.
And tonight, this existence that all magicians feared encountered the biggest crisis since the last Seven Kings War.
Blackhawks circled around Carmen Heavy Industries’ headquarters, and even from a distance of tens of meters, one could feel the anxious heat waves and the stinging thick smoke.
Qiu Wentian, standing next to Li Changhe, glanced at the circling Blackhawks in the sky and subconsciously hugged his chest, asking, "What did you see?"
"I couldn’t see anything, but I almost got my eyes smoked blind," Li Changhe shook his head and said, "I only thought about rescue and contacting other heroic spirits, I didn’t expect the other side to be so thorough."
After the two confirmed their cooperation and settled their respective Contractors,
They immediately rushed to Carmen Heavy Industries, intending to save their ally, Knight Rank, who had an arrow in the knee.
Now, the situation of the three was more like teammates in an Instance. In order not to lose any effective combat power, they made every effort to rescue their teammates.
About ten minutes ago, the archer with an arrow in his knee quickly entered the battlefield at the World Trade Center and then left the battlefield even faster.
At that time, Li Changhe felt that something was wrong in his heart, as the timing seemed too coincidental.
If it wasn’t because of Carmen Heavy Industries’ internal betrayal, then someone had seized the opportunity.
They attacked Carmen Heavy Industries when the Sword Rank heroic spirit was summoned, endangering the Contractor successfully.
Forcing the Knight Rank Contractor to use the precious Mark of the King, thus disrupting the rescue plan.
Otherwise, Qiu Wentian would not have had to make such a dangerous escape from the sky.
From Li Changhe’s perspective, this plan was very successful.
After all, Carmen Heavy Industries was large and powerful. They were the strongest of the story forces in this mission but could not be completely hidden.
The advantages and disadvantages were equally significant.
Carmen Heavy Industries considered this situation, so they brazenly made no attempt to hide anything.
But it was not blind self-confidence.
Rather than hiding the Contractor in a safety house, it’s better to hide them inside Carmen Heavy Industries’ headquarters.
Although the Seven Kings War did not allow outsiders to intervene, there were no restrictions on self-defense.
Arrange for a dozen or twenty senior magicians to squat at Carmen Heavy Industries, and anyone who dares to come will die.
Li Changhe had heard about the set up earlier from the archer with an arrow in his knee, so he didn’t need to worry about the contractor’s safety at all.
If it weren’t for the fact that the Seven Kings War didn’t allow outsiders to get involved, he could have even attacked all the heroic spirits with a large group of allies.
The confidence of a large family is strong. This number of Transcendent personnel cannot be directly confronted by [Players] below LV10.
Who knows if there would be powerful Transcendents like the cheap godfather inside...
The current situation was that the Contractor had indeed been forced to use the Mark of the King, and it was unknown what trouble they had encountered. The chances of a frontal attack should not be high.
It couldn’t be a [Player], as the other [Players] were all at the World Trade Center at the time. Was it a Contractor who took action?
Did they break the arrangement of Carmen Heavy Industries and attack the Contractor?
Is there such a powerful Contractor among them?
In comparison, Luca seemed really weak, but in comparison to others, he still had some fighting power. He shouldn’t have any issues with self-defense.
At least he could use the Mark of the King when encountering danger.
As for Qiu Wentian’s Contractor Yami, she was simply an ordinary little girl. Even the existence of a magician was only known to her from fairy tales, let alone assisting her comrades. She had become a real burden.
"Thinking from your perspective, the Contractor who summoned the gunner... couldn’t be a baby or someone in a vegetative state, right?" Yun Ting pondered in his mind.
"Who knows, maybe it’s not even a human. I heard from Luca that some magicians have studied creating synthetic beasts. Maybe it’s just a talking synthetic beast... that orders the gunner to commit suicide as soon as it speaks,"
"You mean... like the big brother?"
This "big brother" naturally wasn’t referring to Li Changhe.
Li Changhe was taken aback for a moment before sighing, "Brother Ting, don’t bring up those memories of Fullmetal Alchemist right now. It’s depressing."
Then, a ripple of spatial fluctuation flashed on his body, and he took out the long-lost [Abyss Whisper Mechanical Bow], put on a black leather armor and bird beak mask, making Li Changhe look rather gloomy.
"My big brother sensed that there is still fighting going on inside, the Knight must have encountered trouble. What state have you recovered to? Can you still do anything?"
"I told you when we met, women only affect the speed at which I draw my sword," Qiu Wentian glanced at the bow and arrow in Li Changhe’s hand and laughed proudly, "And right now, there is no woman by my side, so naturally, I have no weaknesses!"
At the same time, the large sword scabbard on his back stomped on the ground: "Rejoice, Uncle Eight-direction. You have saved the strongest [Player] in this mission."
"I am invincible!"
Faced with such a confident yet childish declaration, Li Changhe felt there were too many loopholes to even bother commenting.
Women only affect the speed of drawing swords... But aren’t you a woman? Or considering the physique capable of crashing the Blackhawk, could you actually be a crossdressing man?
As for the strongest [Player]... alright, apparently, they don’t even see the Gunner, who is ranked first, as human anymore.
How pathetic, when will us Gunners be able to stand up?
"Right, I am not that unlucky Gunner. I am an Archer," Li Changhe thought before stepping out.
